Jalan Tribe Massacre

The Conflict

Prelude

Three seasonal cycles before, Ailin started a campaign to get the tribes of the Obsidian Coast to join the Kingdom of Aon.
Many either joined or moved down the coast to join Mordoth. But one tribe refused to do either. The Jalan Tribe resisted Ailin.

Battlefield

The Obsidian Coast is a blackened area of land. There are cacti. Due to The Shattering, there's regular volcanic eruptions.

The Engagement

Ailin attacked the Jalan Tribe under the cover of darkness. Despite the surprise attack, and catching them while they were still sleeping, it wasn't a quick or an easy fight.
The Jalan Tribe lost many of their best warriors in that first round from Ailin. But they had supernaturals who had trained Crefalls who were able to enhance the volcanic activity to devestating effects.

Outcome

Jalan Tribe was wiped out (except for three members). This gave Ailin the victory and cemented his control over the Provinces of the Kingdom.

Aftermath

King Ailin was a hard man who dreamed of expanding the borders of the Kingdom. He was not a man who took the word 'no' well... In the end, even he learned there are consenquences to one's actions.

The three survivors of the Jalan Tribe reunited and formed the assassin's guild, the Order of Jalan. The Order trained, gained members, created safe houses and a network of tunnels and spies. They assassinated several high ranking people, including Ailin.

Historical Significance
